Downloading video from youtube?
« on: September 04, 2007, 09:05:42 am »
I was hoping to grab a little clip on the web in youtube or google video or somewhere else, I don't really care, but don't know how do to it.  I was hoping to get the little 5 second clip of "The Dramatic Chipmunk" downloaded to my hard drive to use in apowerpoint presentation, cna anyone help me out on this?

But tell me, can you heal what father's done?
Or fix this hole in a mother's son?
Can you heal the broken worlds within?
Can you strip away so we may start again?
Tell me, can you heal what father's done?
Or cut this rope and let us run?
Just when all seems fine, and I'm pain free, you jab another pin,
Jab another pin in me

I only know of one way to do it (well there's another, but ONLY if you can grab the actual address where the flash is getting the film clip from, if you have the address a direct open and copy from the player works), and that is to get either an flv loader or one of the few programs out there that will grab the flash product that you want and load it into a save file from which you can play it from (I think youtube uses flash format, haven't really tried to grab anything from it).
